What's fixed

1.31.6's installers booted past the Cannot find package 'ws' error but then hit a new crash:

Error: Missing parameter name at index 15: /:name/assets/*

Root cause: the pixcode-desktop wrapper's npm install ended up pulling a newer transitive path-to-regexp than the main pixcode repo has in its dev node_modules. v8 of that library removed support for bare * wildcards in route patterns — every route using the old syntax now throws at startup.

Fix: rewrite the three offending routes as literal RegExps, which Express handles directly without invoking path-to-regexp at all. Params come through req.params[0] / [1] — same wire as the old :name + * combo, just accessed by index instead of by name.

• /:name/assets/* → /^\/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)\/assets\/(.+)$/
• /:name/rpc/* → /^\/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)\/rpc\/(.*)$/
• catch-all '*' → /.*/

Install

⏳ Installers are building (~10 min), refresh shortly:

• Windows — Pixcode-Setup-1.31.7.exe
• macOS — Pixcode-1.31.7-arm64.dmg · Pixcode-1.31.7-x64.dmg
• Linux — Pixcode-1.31.7-x86_64.AppImage · Pixcode-1.31.7-amd64.deb

Or via npm:

:::bash
npm install -g @pixelbyte-software/pixcode@1.31.7
pixcode

Upgrading from 1.31.6

Uninstall 1.31.6 first (its server never started so the in-app update path never woke up). Install 1.31.7. From now on — assuming this boot succeeds — product updates will come through the in-app flow automatically without any installer redownload.
